Got my PPDL from SAFYC as well. The practical test is the easy part. All the best for the theory exam, esp all the night questions on different lights identification and colour beacons.

PPDL is relatively easy but I dont think you can sail a yacht after tat. It'll take years of experience before you can even be skipper of a yacht. Power boat (10ft) is very small compare to yacht (25ft and above). Also the height of it will be very difficult to berth (park) it. You'll still need an experience skipper to bring you outta jetty. Maybe after tat you can take over for a little bit of fun. Dont think anyone here wanna sink the yacht then swim back with life jacket

Just remember in the sea, dont really have right of way like we have driving a car. When you crash both party might have to bear responsiblities.

One more thing, like wat andrew mentioned the maintenance will burn your pocket better buy a rolex
